This is a valid issue with the python bindings.
------- Comment #5 From Paul Loughman 2010-02-15 21:01:58 (-) [reply] -------
The file affecting this is /usr/share/pyshared/PyQt4/uic/uiparser.py
The problem is line 184:

bg_name = bg_i18n.string

Which needs to read:

bg_name = str(bg_i18n)

Making this correction allows User Management to launch without error.
